This was posted on the Illinirail list. Mike isn't a member of this list so I told him I'd forward this for him. If you think some of these slides are yours you can contact him directly. His email address is below his name.

If there is anyone on the IlliniRail list who, several years ago, submitted color slides of Burlington Zephyr subjects to John ("Bill") W. Schultz for his yet-to-be-published book on Burlington's Zephyr fleet, and didn't get them back, please contact me off list. Some time ago -- I think around the time of the death of CB&Q fan Ed De Rouin -- a number of my shots were returned to me and with them came a whole bunch of slides taken by others, most without names on them. I guess whoever sent them to me figured they were all mine or something. I have lost contact with John.
I am in the process of returning slides to those who did put their names or initials on them.
There are brief notes on most of the slides, but I don't recognize the handwriting. Several of the slides were taken in the Chicago area circa 1969; a few were earlier than that and one is shown as 1970. A couple include the Empire Builder. I don't want to get more specific than that because I will need to do some cross-checking with anyone who responds. I want to be sure these get back to their rightful owner(s).
